Without dosing carbon you do not have a ULNS system. Furthermore you do not have po4 at .006. That is just what the test kit says. All of those thing you mention you have are the results of nutrients (mostly) and they are also the reason the test reads that low. They simply are using the phosphate and not leaving it free in the water for you to test.
Feeding lite means you have a low demand system. In a ULNS you will be feeding a ton of food, it will all be gobbled up quickly, and then removed from the system quickly. You have to sustain the bacteria with an extra food source in such a way that it is ahead of the natural curve.
